No Profit for U2

U2 has been touring the world for the last three months and while the shows are selling out, the band has yet to make a dime off of it because of the high cost of the stage set up. The Claw, as it is called, is their portable stage, and it costs around $750,000 to construct and transport for every single show. Bono and the rest of the guys aren’t expected to turn a profit of any kind until they finish the North American leg of the tour this month. Let’s be honest though, they already have heaps of money anyway. However, it is nice to know that they’re putting on a good show for their fans even though it might not be the cheapest option.
